Law, Religion and Homosexuality

This book provides the first systematic study of the role of religious organizations and institutions in fashioning the contemporary legal landscape of sexuality. Within the context of global debates about religion and homosexuality, this book considers how faith communities and organizations influence the legal arrangements that shape the lives of gay men and lesbians across a number of diverse areas. Law, Religion and Homosexuality’s consideration of the dynamic relationship between law and religion in respect of homosexuality and equality will be of interest to a wide audience of academics, policy makers, and stakeholders.
